Suction Clarifier

What is it?

A clarifier mechanism employing a unitube header (a
specially designed rectangular shaped arm provided
with orifices) in place of conventional rake arms, which
sucks the settled sludge hydraulically for further
withdrawal.
Advantages
Positive, Rapid Sludge Removal -Resulting in fresher
sludge, less chance of septicity, reduced aeration
requirements, prevention of phosphate release
Maximum Solids Concentration - Resulting in reduced
sludge volumes, lesser pumping & disposal costs
Minimum Sludge Turbulence - Suction removal of sludge
minimizes underwater disturbance and re-suspension of
sludge assisting in consistent clear overflow
Economy - Requires virtually flat floors resulting in
reduced civil costs, reduced torque and power
requirements, superior sludge quality resulting in lower
aeration requirements

Peripheral Feed Suction Clarifier

Advantages
What is it? Hydraulic Efficiency - 50 to 80% more than the
Clarifier with Peripheral Feed & Peripheral Take off conventional center feed clarifier

Applications Higher Overflow Rates - resulting in reduced foot print /

Secondary / Final Clarifier typically in
Wastewater Treatment
less number of units
Municipal
Eliminates Short circuiting, permitting full utilization of
tank volume and reduction in surface area by as much as
50% as compared to conventional center feed unit

 THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR RELIABILITY AND VALUE

Dissolved Air Flotation Thickener

Features & Benefits

Exceptionally effective in concentrating chemically
treated sludges as well as sludges floated without the
use of chemicals
With chemicals, loadings can be increased upto 3 times
Choice to operate with or without chemicals depending
on best economies for each situation
Achieving 5% total solids and more on biological
sludges alone, far surpassing the performance of
conventional gravity systems
Employs principle of Floating the solids to the tank
surface by millions of tiny air bubbles, forming a
highly concentrated sludge blanket
Introduces air into an external liquid source such as
recirculated effluent at elevated pressure in a saturation
tank and then blending this air saturated stream flow with
the sludge to be thickened
Floated thickened sludge is continuously skimmed from
tank surface by chain & flight skimmer assuring scum
removal at highest possible solids concentration

Dissolved Air Flotation Thickener

Gravity Belt Thickener

Features & Benefits

Efficiently reduces the volume of wastewater sludge both

- industrial and municipal process slurries
Uses principle of liquid separation by gravity drainage
enhancing separation by sludge rolling action
Small Foot print
Low capital cost, easy installation
